Chapter 214

"Liam—no, I’ll call you my brother from now on! Brother, this drinking today—uh, it’s been great! You have no idea how long—how long it’s been since I’ve enjoyed drinking this much..."

"Come, come, let’s keep going. Your big brother will drink first as a sign of respect, and you catch up..."

Thomas Roberts, now rambling, slung an arm around Liam’s shoulder, thoroughly intoxicated.

At this point, even the terms of address were all jumbled up.

"Thomas, you shouldn’t drink any more. You’ve had enough..."

Carol Evelyn said with a helpless smile, trying to stop him.

Meanwhile, Sophia gave Liam a discreet thumbs-up, clearly signaling that he was doing great.

She had already told Liam that during the meal, he absolutely had to get her father drunk.

Only then would her father, who was incredibly skilled at reading people and deducing details, stop asking too many questions and fail to notice anything unusual.
